Lost Souls is a 2000 American horror film directed by Janusz Kamiński, and stars Winona Ryder, Ben Chaplin, Elias Koteas, and John Hurt. It is about a man who is told he will become the Antichrist. A small group of Roman Catholics believe that Satan intends to become man just as God did in the person of Jesus. Writings from a seemingly possessed mental patient lead them to Peter Kelson . The group suspect that it is his body Satan has chosen to occupy. The youngest of the group Maya Larkin , meets Peter to investigate further and to try to convince him of embodied evil. Other signs come... to him as he and Maya take a journey full of strange occurrences, self discovery and an ultimate showdown. The film was shot in 1998 on location in Los Angeles and New York City in America. The film was initially set for release in October 1999, however, due to a flood of "End of the World" movies such as End of Days scheduled for release around the same time the decision was made to delay the film. The second date for release February 2000 was also cancelled due to conflict with the very popular Scream franchise.
